Ten Years Younger.

Mrs. Mary Montgomery, of Boston,
writes: &c For years, 1 was compelled
to wear a dress cap to conceal bald
spot on the crown of my head but now
L gladly lay the cap aside, for your Hair
Vigor is bringing out new growth. L
could hardly trust my senses when
first found my hair growing but there
it is, and L am delighted. 1 look ten
gears younger"
A similar result attended the use Of
Ayers Hair Vigor by Mrs. o. o. Pres
colt, of Charlestown, Mass, Miss Bessie
H. Bedloe, of Burlington, VT, Mrs. J. j.
Burton, of Bangor, Me-, and numerous
others.
The loss of hair may be owing to i'm
purity of the blood or arrangement of
the stomach and liver, in which case,
a course of Ayers Sarsaparilla or of
Ayers Pills, in connection with the
Vigor, may be necessary to give health
and tone TO ali the functions of the
body. AT the same time, it cannot be
too strongly urged that none of these
remedies can do much good without
a persevering trial and strict attention
to clearly and temperate habits.

THREE GOOD WISHES.

A gentleman, while at the dinner table
with his family, had these words said to
him by his son, lad of eleven years:
"Fsther, Rave been thinking if 1 could

allowance be increased to three wishes;
what would they be? Be careful, Char

good health; and, third of good educa-

things are held in high esteem among

In Paris noisy demonstrations, at least
in the interior of theatre, are no longer
considered good form, and they have be-
come exceedingly rare; but in the prov
inccs the public are very jealous of their
rights, and on the slightest provucation
assert them by whistlinC ct any unfOrtun-
ate actor who may happen TO incur dis
pleasure. As far back as 1913, police
ordinance undertook to put stop TO the
practice by fOrbidGing under penalty Of the
stocks anything calculated to disturb the
good order OF a theatrical performance.
This, however, remained dead letter, and
the same may I've said of the modern regu-
lations on the subject which forbid all acts
in places OF amusement that in any way
prevent spectators from seeing or hearing
the performance. Were they 10 be enforced
they would have to be applied against those
who applaud as well rs against those who
hiss. Were this not done there would he
u manifest contradiction in furnishing a
man for giving shrill whistle which,
after all, does not drown either the words
of the actor or the music of the orchestra.
while those who by clapping their hands,
stamping with their feet. or humping on
the floor with canes and umbrellas are
allowed to continue Unmolested and to re-
commence at pleasure. In reality, ap-
plause does more to interrupt perform
